I varied the way I made them:
Cake - Papermania layering cake stamps (these are ANCIENT), Concord & 9th candles and star stamps, coloured with distress inks and stickles.

Spotty Background - this one was super simple, I just used a background that I had stamped from Jamey's stash. I added a couple of sequins here and there.

Pink Stencil - I wanted to play with a new Tim Holtz mini stencil - I like the slightly out of focus feel of the background. Here I used clear droplets (I know..obsessed).

Teal/Orange - I heat embossed the HB2U with my new sparkly WOW powder, it is stunning in real life. The orange ink is a new mini Archival ink. I liked the bright colour combo here and I decided to add little stars to this one.

All really simple cards, I think I'll be doing a few more of these, its a great way to maximise a stamp set.

Hello!

I set-up this blog to share tips, my projects, some chit chat and my family adventures!

Now for the fine print..

But I would appreciate it if you'd give me a shout out and a link back to this blog if you do, just as I do with when I CASE. Please do not present anything you find here as your own or submit my work for competitions or for publication.
